Gina Miller will give up her Brexit battle if Britain's government wins the Article 50 court case appeal

LONDON — Gina Miller, the lead claimant in a legal
challenge to stop Theresa May triggering Article 50 without
parliamentary approval, confirmed that she has no plans to take
the case further if she loses the upcoming appeal.

The government argued that it has the right to bypass parliament
and use royal prerogative to trigger Article 50. It decided to
appeal the High Court's decision, meaning the case will be
revisited by the Supreme Court next month.

Speaking to Bloomberg, Miller, who Business Insider interviewed in August
prior to the High Court case, said she has no intention of taking
the case to the European Courts if the government is
successful in its appeal.

"My particular case is a constitutional one in Britain so I would
not be going [to the European Courts]... whatever the outcome"
she said.

"That’s not to say the Supreme Court itself won’t say that
aspects of Article 50 need to be debated at an international
level."

Miller's legal representatives argued successfully that
triggering Article 50 would result in rights enjoyed by
Brits as EU citizens — like the right to vote to in EU elections
and refer a legal dispute to the European Court of Justice — will
be destroyed in an instant, without MPs having a
say.

If the Supreme Court upholds the High Court's verdict, it means
May will be required to pass an act of parliament before
triggering Article 50 — the legal mechanism reserved for
countries looking to leave the EU.

Labour's shadow Brexit minister Keir Starmer has said the party
will not block Article 50 but will demand May disclose more
details about the government's negotiation strategy before
initiating Britain's formal departure.
